What Mark Twain cannot use, they then donate to the schools (such as all Reader's Digest magazines), local VA, etc. They truly appreciate each and every donation.
BTW -- For those who want to check out books there, all you need is your Villages ID card. Books are due 30 days after check out, movies/dvds/books on tape 7 days. Magazines are yours for the taking. There are no late fees and if you turn something in late, no one will say a word. I know of some snowbirds who check out books on tape for their drive home and return them when they come back down (not recommended but ....).

Thanks for the clarification, Red...I'd have been standing around with a box filled with old movies..
I'll look to see if I have anything else to donate.
